No H.S. degree until they have ALL read Atlas Shrugged !

I think it should be on a "reading list" even though it can be a very hard read in sections where Rand is "philosophizing" Not sure HSers will get the concepts in depth Rand has in it, but it is one of those books you read over and get the little nuggets you might have missed.

I read "Atlas Shrugged" in my thirties and my political ideas were already in place by the time I was in high school so it had little influence on my views, just affirmation.Definitely a college read.
